CHAPTER 3
TO AVOID DRAINING THE BATTERY
REMOVE THE IGNITION KEY FROM THE SWITCH
WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING.
The ignition switch features 3
positions. In a clockwise direction
they are off, run, and start. The
start position is spring loaded
and the key should be held in this
position to engage the starter.
Once the engine has started release
the key from the start position.
The electrical system will then be
energized in the run position.
Be a smart skipper and remove the ignition keys from the ignition
switches with children aboard and/or when there are people in the
water.

TYPICAL IGNITION SWITCH
Ignition
Breaker
A 20 amp breaker
is located next to the
ignition switch. It protects
the ignition and starter
circuits from overloads.
Should the breaker “pop”
find the cause of the
problem before resetting
the breaker. When
considering professional assistance remember that your Regal dealer
has undergone special factory training with our vessel systems and
components.
